Hillary and the Flag Pin

During the latest Barack Obama-Hillary Clinton debate there was a question orchestrated by ABC News which questioned Barack Obamas patriotism for not wearing an American flag lapel pin. If Charles Gibson and George Stephanopoulos were intent on pursing this trivia, might it be sexism not to ask Hillary Clinton the same question? Anyone who has ever been to a Republican Party event knows that many GOP women proudly wear small pieces of jewelry in the shape of Americas flag. Not Hillary Clinton. If some consider a flag pin mandatory for male candidates, the jewelry equivalent certainly applies to women who seek public office.
